He can't carry a team the way Rose and Paul can.

So those were a complimentary 17 rebounds, 18 points, and 20 assists?

EDIT: I'm not saying he's as able to carry a team, I'm just saying that is at least somewhat able to carry a team.

Yeah, he's a stat padder like that overrated Kevin Love. :lol:

Rondo with a consistent jump shot would be the best PG in the league without question. He's already the third best playmaker, next to Nash and Paul, he's definitely the best rebounding PG, and a top 5 defensive PG as well.

Only third best playmaker? I think you're underrating his passing. But between those three, the differences are pretty subjective anyway.

I'd still rather have Paul or Nash passing the ball. Rondo isn't far behind though

Yeah, I meant consistently. Rondo has about the same usage percentage as Paul, but Paul is much more efficient, which is why he scores so much more. Rondo basically scores 14 points on the equivalent of 14 shots. That's Gerald Henderson-like.

No three point shot and crap from the foul line makes me agree with you when it comes to him not being able to carry a team in the way a Paul or Rose do.
